Latency

How long it takes an AI agent to respond after receiving a request. Lower latency means a faster, more natural-feeling interaction.

Latency is response delay. A customer asking an AI agent a question expects an answer in a couple of seconds, not thirty. High latency makes an agent feel broken even if its answer is correct, which is why response speed is one of the things AI Abstraction’s uptime monitoring tracks alongside accuracy.
